Quick way to move selected files to one folder?

Post by Native2904 »

Hi,

I could swear I once read in the documentation that there is a trick to quickly move a large number of selected files together into one common folder one level up.
But I can't remember where I read it, or even what exactly I should search for.

Does anyone happen to know this off the top of their head?

Simply right-click on files and select Move Up. If you don't have that, enable it in: Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Context Menus | File List...

Is there a command to do the opposite ( move down)?

Well, I moved a bunch of files up a directory, was just wondering if you could go back/down again?..

Undo ?

Otherwise Move [Down] wouldn't know what folder to move into.
